Torres Strait Islands Drowning Due to Climate Change 🌊

About this video

Climate change is causing catastrophic damage to the Torres Strait Islands.

Without immediate action, the islanders' worst fears will become a reality, forcing them to leave what has been their home for centuries.

As sea levels continue to rise at an alarming rate, sea walls provide a temporary solution to a much bigger problem - but the islanders are fighting back; suing the Australian government is just the beginning.

This is the story of how a father and son are refusing to be silenced, letting the world know of their plight.
